She felt rather inclined just for a moment to stand still after all that chatter, and pick out one particular thing; the thing that mattered . . .
âVirginia Woolf, To The Lighthouse
Â
An illuminating exploration of how seven of the greatest English novels of the nineteenth and twentieth centuriesâFrankenstein, Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, Middlemarch, Mrs. Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, and Between the Actsâportray the essential experiences of life.
Edward Mendelsonâa professor of English at Columbia Universityâillustrates how each novel is a living portrait of the human condition while expressing its authorâs complex individuality and intentions and emerging from the authorâs life and times. He explores Frankenstein as a searing representation of child neglect and abandonment and Mrs. Dalloway as a portrait of an ideal but almost impossible adult love, and leads us to a fresh and fascinating new understanding of each of the seven novels, reminding usâin the most captivating wayâwhy they matter.
